    My father left me a boat in a lot worse shape. It was his pride and joy, and we have a lot of good memories on her. He would always talk about the boat having a soul. You can't say it's not worth it without knowing the situation.

    Thanks. That was a very interesting look at the type of work required to bring an old boat up to scratch. I look forward to following your progress.

    I like your surveyor, he is realistic and uses a comparative strategy.

    That was a really informative video, I learned a lot. Great job. I'm looking forward to seeing how the issues are solved. Very meticulous surveyor, would be great to see a follow up !!

    Big project! Good luck with it. I always loved the Vagabond 47 design, a beautiful boat. We are lucky that our decks on our 27 year old 50 ft Transworld trawler are cored with closed cell foam. No wood core thus no rot or delamination anywhere. Though we do have exterior teak decks that require a lot of maintenance.

    Good on him for rolling up his sleeves and learning how to maintain his yacht.

    Surveys sometimes feel like having teeth pulled, it's gotta be done, and it hurts, but you feel better knowing its done.
    You know what you've got.

    I have a snall boat I am restoring, ripped out all the wood - in the hull, and replacing it with composite plastic, which does not rot. What gets me people rip rotten wood out and then replace it with wood than can rot again. I did find this video very informative. thank you

    Good surveyor! The thin nut goes on first - it's a jam nut. The thick nut goes on last, heavily torqued against the jam nut. Don't know why but probably 90% of the boats I see are wrong.

    42:55 good looking wiring, why would you spend life for changing it? Colour code can be applied on top with tape and shrink tubes. Aliexpress has it.

    Finally, A great video on how -to, Thank you so much. I actually can even tell the differance of the hammer tapping sounds now. Luckally, but unfortunately, my boat search will now take much longer, but with good results thanks to you. Any word on how much these inspectors charge ,so, when I "think" I found a good one ?

    Hello there, forgive my intrusion...........the boat is referred to as a Vagabond 47 which have a 'clinker built', or 'lapstrake' hull. This boat has a smooth hull. Any explanation ?. Thanks for the video, it is very informative.

    I thought gate vales were a no-no on through hulls and should only have ball valves. Was surprised at 39 minutes when he didn't call that out on that exhaust through hull, even though its above the waterline.

    Great video. Now I know that sailing is a money pit. Unless I hit the Powerball I'm better off daydreaming about the sailing life. I think I'll channel the resources I have into my 401K.

    Is that an American made vessel? Getting a Jones Act Waiver might be difficult given the state that vessel. I only say this because the liferaft and other equipment needed for charter is going to cost quite a bit.

    Sorry, I guess I should have had an epilog - yes, the boat was eventually put back in a shape where I could consider it seaworthy and insurable. Regarding bon vivant's comment; yes this too was one of those that was worth more in the owner's heart than "worth it", but how do you define "worth"? :>)

    • @gregwebster8784
      @gregwebster8784 7 лет назад

      MSOLmarine I work on yachts and it seems, that's the defining moment. When you either become a boater ( learn to work on your boat)or a boat owner (pay someone to do it for you and get rid of it when you get tired of paying) . lolol

  • @hipcatwho
    @hipcatwho 9 лет назад

    Oh well if its not a boat it might be an old car or some other thing to help empty a bank account. That's what money is for and a Vagabond or other fine sailing craft (low budget or Top shelf) up to You might just be what We all need.

    Looks like close to $80000 in repairs mnimum. 10 months buy yourself seems unrealistic.
